NCAA Division II Strategic Plan 2015-21 NCAA Division II Strategic Plan Addendum / January 2021 DIVISION II 300+ MEMBERS 23 CONFERENCES 120,000 STUDENT-ATHLETES 25 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS 1 MISSION To provide value and significance for Division II members by supporting the purpose of higher education and striking a balance among academic excellence; athletics competition; community engagement; and social and personal development and wellness. As the 2015-21 Division II Strategic Plan enters its final scheduled year, the Division II Presidents Council and the Division II Planning and Finance Committee agreed to extend the plan through 2023 to align with the timing of several important Division II and NCAA initiatives. Primarily, launching a successor plan in 2024 aligns procedurally with the next Division II Membership Census and the beginning of the next phase of the NCAA’s broadcast agreement. In addition, the current plan has proven to be effective and is consistently aligned with the Division II membership’s values to address operational needs, which supports extending the plan without risk. This addendum highlights successful implementation to date of key initiatives that support the 2015-21 Division II Strategic Plan, outlines steps necessary to develop the next iteration of the plan, and illustrates action the Division II membership and governance structure took throughout 2020 to navigate the extraordinary circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic and keep the strategic plan on track. DIVISION II STRATEGIC PLAN ADDENDUM 3 Our Plan In April 2015, Division II formally adopted a six-year strategic plan that builds upon the division’s unique attributes and a position of fiscal strength to guide future decisions. The plan supports Division II’s balanced and inclusive approach that affords student-athletes the opportunity to explore their varied academic and social interests, to grow as productive contributors to their communities. The Division II Planning and Finance Committee oversaw a midterm assessment of the plan in 2018 based on results from the second Division II Membership Census to ensure that what the division committed to in 2015 remains on course. The midterm assessment reaffirmed the commitment to the plan’s mission and vision and to the values that drive them. Even as the plan enters its sixth year, it continues to support Division II’s bedrock principles: u Division II’s Life in the Balance philosophy, which over time has evolved into a stabilizing mantra that drives decision making and policy. u The membership appreciates and intentionally promotes the division’s attributes to set themselves apart in a competitive higher education market. u The governance structure continues to be trusted to manage the division’s affairs, especially in times of extreme need, as evidenced by how established processes and principles within the structure helped the membership navigate the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. u Division II values a strong student-athlete voice, both in the governance structure as well as in community to advocate for principles supporting equity, diversity and inclusion. 4 DIVISION II STRATEGIC PLAN ADDENDUM “This package of [NIL] recommendations What We Have Accomplished includes some very prominent and profound legislation to SPO 1 ACADEMICS AND LIFE SKILLS modernize Division II’s rules and policies, Goals u and they follow the Help Student-Athletes Earn Their Degrees NCAA Board of u Help Student-Athletes Obtain and Develop Leadership Skills Governors’ guiding u Help Student-Athletes Maintain Healthful and Productive Lifestyles principles to ensure u Help Student-Athletes Engage with Their Communities student-athletes are Key initiatives either adopted or enhanced since the 2018 midterm assessment treated similarly to NIL Legislation. The Presidents Council endorsed proposals for the 2021 NCAA Convention to allow nonathlete students, student-athletes to benefit from their name, image and likeness by promoting athletically related work unless a compelling products and third-party commercial products. reason exists to Total Package Student-Athlete. The Division II SAAC has developed initiatives supporting the overarching goal called the “Total Package Student-Athlete”: differentiate.” u Total: Mental health. Break the stigma and inspire others to promote mental wellness. Chris Graham Commissioner of the u Package: Diversity and inclusion.

Athletic Conference u and chair of the Division II Student: Professional development. Prepare student-athletes for experiences and challenges in life Management Council after athletics. u Athlete: Love2Play. Encourage young athletes to play multiple sports and to have fun while they play. SAAC Super Region Conventions. Two Super Region conventions have been conducted already with great success, and while recent editions have been canceled due to the coronavirus, successors will be rescheduled soon to continue enhancing the student-athlete voice. Access for Nonqualifiers. Based on feedback from the Division II SAAC and Coaches Connection groups, the Presidents Council supported permissive legislation to allow access to institutional athletics aid and access to practice to all incoming freshman student-athletes and two-year college transfers, regardless of their initial-eligibility status. The rationale centers on the importance of student-athletes staying connected to their teams and how that can factor into mental health. DIVISION II STRATEGIC PLAN ADDENDUM 5 SPO 2 ATHLETICS OPERATIONS AND COMPLIANCE Goals u Help Campuses and Conferences Maintain Engaged and Function Athletics Operations u Help Campuses and Conferences Maintain Engaged and Function Compliance Operations Key initiatives either adopted or enhanced since the 2018 midterm assessment Division II University. After a successful first year using DII U to administer the required annual coaches certification, four courses on NCAA rules and one on health and safety will be added. Additional future modules will target other Division II constituents, including courses on gameday operations and customer service, as well as courses directed at faculty athletics representatives. Coaches Connection. Connectors have now been established for nearly all Division II championship sports to provide coaches with a forum for sharing information, sharing their voice in policy and decision making, and advocating for the values of Division II. SPO 3 DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION Goals u Help Campuses and Conferences Create Diverse and Inclusive Environments u Build Environments at the NCAA National Office and within the Governance Structure in which Diversity and Inclusion are Recognized and Valued Key initiatives either adopted or enhanced since the 2018 midterm assessment Diversity/Inclusion Designee. Legislation was adopted at the 2020 Convention requiring each Division II school and conference to name a diversity and inclusion designee for athletics who will serve as the primary contact for diversity and inclusion information from the NCAA national office. Mentoring Program. Division II has enhanced a partnership with the Athletics Directors Association that targets aspiring ADs, particularly women and ethnic minorities, to advance their careers. The program now features one and one-half days at the NCAA national office in October and a follow-up session at the annual NACDA convention in June. Inclusion Forum. Division II will fund activation teams from approximately 40 institutions to attend the 2021 forum and develop institution-specific action plans to enhance diversity and inclusion on campus. 6 DIVISION II STRATEGIC PLAN ADDENDUM SPO 4 GAME DAY AND CHAMPIONSHIPS Goals u Provide Outstanding Division II Game Day Experiences at the Local, Conference and National Levels u Create Fair and Equitable Regional and National Competition Through Consistent Selection Criteria and Appropriate Access Key initiatives either adopted or enhanced since the 2018 midterm assessment National Championships Festivals. A representative task force appointed to review the festival experience submitted more than two dozen enhancements, including the establishment of a men’s and women’s basketball festival to be conducted in the “off year” of the normal festival rotation. Seeding at Finals. All team sport committees now seed teams advancing from the regionals to help ensure the best matchups at the final site. Neutrality. The division is conducting a pilot that allows preliminary-round hosts in select sports to conduct the same kinds of pregame promotions and celebrations they run during their regular-season home games before resuming “neutrality” during the actual competition. Game Day Ops. Division II established a partnership with the Disney Institute to promote excellent customer service among game day staff and improve the overall game environment at Division II contests. SPO 5 MEMBERSHIP AND POSITIONING INITIATIVES Goals u Foster Fiscal Responsibility at the Local, Conference, Regional and National Levels u Continue Developing Member Institutions and Conferences that Support the Strategic Position and Philosophy of Division II Intercollegiate Athletics u Enhance the Public’s Knowledge and Appreciation of Division II Key initiatives either adopted or enhanced since the 2018 midterm assessment Long-Range Budget. The Division II Presidents Council approved a new long-range budget through 2032 that aligns the Division II revenue allocation with the NCAA’s 10-year
